Phoenix International Raceway

This website is an online resource for NASCAR enthusiasts, so if you have a great picture of Phoenix International Raceway, send it to us for inclusion here.

In 1964, when Phoenix International Raceway was carved out of the foothills of the Estrella Mountains, it was intended to be a new jewel in the crown of American open-wheel racing. Today, PIR has a tradition that is unmatched in the world of racing.

The track features variable banking, from 9 to 11 degrees, and has a ‘dog leg’ curve on the backstretch that is not seen on other courses.

Campgrounds will open the Monday of race week at 8am and close at noon the day following the NEXTEL Cup Event. There are no hookups, fresh water and septic service will be available for a nominal fee. Be sure to visit the Bashas’ grocery store for all of your camping needs.
